Frostbite (Jack Frost X Reader FanFic)

Chapter 11: Goodbye Mother

Author's Note: This takes place same day right after the wonderful kiss.

"So, I have a question for you," Jack says.

"Fire away," I answer weakly.

"The yetis told me you were only 83 pounds. What happened while I was gone?"

I really didn't want to answer that. It's embarrassing because it all seems silly now.

"Umm... Do I have to answer that?"

Jack looked at me funny. "Yes."

"Well... I kinda sorta didn't eat... For maybe.. I don't know... The entire time you were gone..."

"What?!? Why?!?"

"I was worried about you! I couldn't stop thinking that you were dead or hurt because of me. I'm sorry. I know I was being stupid."

"First of all, none of this is your fault. It is Pitch's. I wouldn't be hurt because of you. It would be because of him. Second of all, Pitch couldn't beat me in twenty million years," he bragged.

I rolled my eyes. Same old Jack is back. He has his arrogant smirk on. Oh no.

---------------------

After that day, Jack and I were an official couple. He forced me to stay in bed even though I felt fine. Sometimes... That guy can be too much like a worried mother. But I love him for it.

I've been in bed for about a week, and Jack brought Danielle a few times to come and visit me. She is always happy to see me. She tells me mom is worried sick, but she doesn't believe in spirits and guardians. So, she doesn't believe Danielle and she doesn't know where I am. She doesn't want to call the cops... She doesn't know what to do.

I have met all the Guardians. There is Sandy, Tooth, North, and Bunnymund. Also, who can forget, Jack. But I met him a while ago. I have become friends with all of them. Tooth is always energetic and happy, North is jolly and very fatherly, Sandy is very reserved and kind, and Bunnymund is funny and usually cheerful. I always thought it was fun how Bunny and Jack were rivals.

Jack and I have shared plenty more kisses. Always a light one because of my condition. Darn it.

I'm getting better. A lot of my wounds have healed. I can walk and move my arms. I feel great. I am still a twig, but I have gained 10 pounds! WOO HOO!

I haven't heard from Manny or from Lucifer. Last I heard, he was getting his wounds treated. He is officially one of my dearest friends.

Anyways, Jack went to get Danielle. I'm waiting here patiently all the while. All of a sudden, I hear the window open and crying. "Danielle? Are you okay?"

I turn my head and see her sobbing into Jack'a shoulder. I mouth to him, "What happened?"

He silently mouths back," I don't know."

"Danielle, come here."

Jack gives her to me, and I quickly hug her. I let her settle down while whispering things like, "it's going to be okay," and "Don't cry, sunshine. I miss you're smile." Just silly little things.

She calms down, and looks me in the eyes. "Mom. She's dead," Danielle whispered. That's all she could get out before bawling again. My own eyes fill up with tears and Jack comes over to hug us both.

I can't believe it. Mom. Is. Gone. I will never see her again. I don't have any parents. OH MY MIM, SHE'S GONE. I can't deal with this. She isn't dead. She can't be. We haven't even done much together yet. "We can get through this together," I tell Danielle.

She nods and just goes back to crying again. I'm crying too. We didn't stop for 20 minutes give or take. We both settled down. I asked her what happened. I found out that Mom drove to work and she got into a car accident on the way home due to how tired she was. Poor girl. I'm going to miss her.

Danielle, Jack, and the rest of the Guardians join my mother's funeral with me. Danielle and I had to speak. I tried to keep mine optimistic, but it was very hard. We put her grave Ina forest, but held the funeral at a sunny meadow to try and lighten the mood.

Her grave read:

RIP (m/n) (l/n)

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower,
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf,
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

--------- AUTHORS NOTE

Hey guys! Sorry... I was kinda sick after my vacation so it took awhile to update.

The poem is Robert Frost's. It was a big theme in the book I'm obsessed with, The Outsiders. I thought it perfectly got the scenario.

I hope you guys like this chapter even though it is total trash! Love you all!!
